It will make a change to see more series's on the road,Including mine. The roads around here just seem full of defenders and discos.

Just up the road from me.. Not sure I have the will power to restore another Landy though :5bsifone:

A few more pics...:D

Thats the ones, proper job..:)

Hi all, I have access to parts catalogue but am struggling to find a part number for the chunky self tappers with hex head. 4 of them hold wing to bulk head. Any ideas?:D

Decided today was going to be the day to get it out from under the tarp, It was on its last legs, with the wind and rain battering it. I'm hoping it'll give me some inspiration having to face it daily on the drive. It is suprising how much is left to do, all little jobs though.

I wondered why the exhaust was blowing!

This was one of the deciding factors that made me get a new chassis, someone went to the trouble of welding the underside, but because the engine was in, I guess ignored the inside.

Now that is shoking, I imagine it went through MOT too, covered in underseal.

I can imagine! Would have broke the socket for sure..:5bsifone:

Something like this.

Thanks, yeh it does. Although no welding has been done, I am prepared to spend the whole weekend at it, to get it as good as can be.

I have put a new galvanised chassis on. The other day I measured from the front of the chassis to the bulkhead on drivers side, the the same from passenger side and they are the same. I will have to do the same I think from the back somewhere, to two identicle places near the door positions...

I put my drivers door on, on the weekend, it fit a treat with no adjusting. The passenger door which I put on the other week is being a pig. One thing I have noticed, is that the size of the door opening, from striker plate to bulkhead is 6mm wider on the passenger side, than on drivers side. I...

Decided to have a go at the seat box today, New end sections from Paddocks. I made a new rear support angle too, a little thicker than the one i took off, but that was all corroded., and would'nt have last much longer. Stripped years of multi coloured paint off too,( paint stripper and a...

Basic! I have dual speed wipers I'll have you know..:D

Yeh, I done a full chassis change, but did leave the original hinges attached to the bulkhead.

Hi all, I got around to hanging a door today, as my series 3 has been tied up for the last 10 months due to ongoing restoration. The door is sitting way out of square to the body at the top. The bottom of the door seems parallel to the bulkhead, but as it follows wind screen its all out. As your...

Rear lights and number plate added now. I had a problem at first getting the indicators to work, which was frustrating as I had a new loom, new indicators. It turned out it was a faulty relay.:D

Side windows are back in now, with a dark smoke tint. Eventually the rear door and alpine roof windows will have a tint. I think the tint looks good with the matt black.
